In the wake of Google expanding its AI verification efforts at I/O, YouTube is now finally going to start taking AI labeling seriously. YouTube has announced that it's relocating AI disclosures on Shorts and long-form videos to make them easier to spot and will start automatically identifying and labeling AI-generated content on the platform.
For regular YouTube videos, the label - which says "AI" next to a recognizable information symbol - will now appear directly below the video player, above the description.

Today, I’m talking with Google and Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai, in a conversation we recorded just after the Google I/O developer conference. This is the fifth year Sundar and I have sat down after I/O, and it’s become one of my favorite Decoder traditions.

AI covers and remixes of songs are already a blight on the internet. Spotify, YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram are awash in flat reggae versions of "Smells Like Teen Spirit," dinky country renditions of The Weeknd, and monotonous Motown reimaginings of AC/DC. Now, a new tool from Spotify will make them even easier to generate and share.
Spotify and Universal Music Group (UMG) signed a licensing deal that will allow users to generate remixes and covers from UMG's catalog. How exactly it will work, beyond being "powered by generative AI technology," or how much it will cost, is unclear. They're positioning this as a premium subscription add-on …
